Women in general.

Once we dove into the lesson for the day I was excited to further research the roles that women play in popular culture such as television, movies and music. My favorite television shows usually consist of very strong lead female characters because there are situations in real life where women do have to be in charge of a group. To further explain my favorite show as of the last couple of months is Rizzoli & Isles because it has two normal women taking on jobs that are very male dominant. Jane Rizzoli is a detective and Maura Isles is a medical examiner(the person who finds out how a person dies), in a normal setting those roles would probably not be filled by women and that is what drew me to those characters in particular. I am a crime drama 'junkie' so when women are able to take charge in those work fields it makes me excited because it shows how far women have and are coming to be noticed in those areas.

   With my group we went over to Fretwell to gain access to some wifi and look up some ideas that we could use to further explain our cause. I am not a feminist by any means but I do get upset when women especially in very high positions get the backlash from the male workers. My group and I were able to come up with a pretty decent list of movies, television and music in which women are either taking charge or simply confident in their sexuality which is hard to find.
